My syslog service is running on my Orion Solarwinds server, however I am not sure how I can use it to grab the syslogs from other servers. Can someone quickly go through the process of setting it up/configuring it?
Zthiel,
The objective is to configure devices to send syslog messages to the Orion server, not to have Orion go get them. Naturally, the configuration on the sending devices will depend on the device type or operating system. From what device types would you like to collect syslog data?
I am looking to send them from W2K3 server and Novell Netware 6.5 servers for right now. I cannot find any docs pointing towards how to complete this.
For your Windows servers, you will need a 3rd party program installed to perform this. Such as Kiwi Syslog agent or SNARE. I'm not sure about Novell.
